1) Installing
- download the program (it will be in the Downloads folder);
- open a Terminal (you will be in the home folder);
- type: sudo sh ./Downloads/wings-1.5.3-linux.bzip2.run (that will install Wings3d)

2) Running Wings3d
- open a Terminal (you will be in the home folder);
- type: sh ./wings-1.5.3/wings

Additional question:
I made a little script by copying sh ./wings-1.5.3/wings into gedit, then save it to the desktop.
I changed Permission and set it to start with Oracle Java 7 Runtime, but nothing happens.

I got one question because in the past I was trying to use W3D with Linux but, found one issue which could not be solved... could you tell me which camera mode (pref/camera) you use? Blender?
Normally, third button is used for rotation, but on Linux I had to click it double.
Or maybe there's someone else who is using Wings and Linux with Blender camera mode and could share with some information about it?
